- It’s What We Do
The Flinders Ranges in South Australia are majestic at anytime, but after the winter rains around the start of spring they’re especially spectacular. It was the ideal destination for a couple of old blokes with Tiger’s tales.
Both Pete and I had bought 800XC Tigers and we’d been hanging out for an opportunity to get them up into the Flinders for a tour.
It only took a few weeks and we had about 15 riders involved. Some had tipped in for two days and others for almost a week. Pete worked on some tracks and trails north from our home town of Gawler, while I organised an overnighter at the Yunta pub and a few nights at the very moto-friendly Angorichina Tourist Village (Ango) in the Parachilna Gorge with hosts Dave and Caroline. We reckoned that was Flinders central!
